Abstract

The Evoke® spinal cord stimulation (SCS) device enables the closed-loop feedback of dynamically measured evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) to adjust stimulation amplitude for every stimulation pulse to maintain the stimulation output level near a targeted ECAP amplitude. No other commercially available SCS device presently uses physiologic feedback from the spinal cord to adjust stimulation. Clinicians should be familiar with the differences in devices and with the latest technologies to provide optimized patient care.
